I love the fact that the hunger to work off the ball is proving it’s value this year. Sometimes the most important work is done when you don’t have the footy. Run. Get back. Pickup opponents. I think burgo has done a great job to get our players physically ready for 4 quarters. The work of Hunt and Langdon has really impressed in the first six games. I’d definitely put workrate as one of the ten reasons for our 6-0 start.

It’s getting a tough call given he’s hardly on the park. Looked shaky last year when given chances. Agree often too good for VFL and perhaps won’t get his body right for AFL.

I think 2019 was the icing on the cake. Big wins in Hibberd, Melksham, Lever, May, Tomlinson and Langdon through trades imo have been monster wins too. And Ben Brown could be the missing piece.

Have to win it. Previous demons teams have “relaxed” against such opposition and paid the price with a defeat. Dees NEED TO BE RUTHLESS

In. Ben Brown out. Jordon sub. Jordon

I agree. ANB played a key role on Saturday night. His goal in the second quarter was team lifting. Big improver this year.

Spargo is the type that will rotate across half forward and the bench or be deployed as needed.

Love the 2nd efforts. Huge upside as a ruckman and midfielder. Absolutely a huge weapon with Gawn that will destroy other teams. Obviously he still needs the development work on kicking, marking, and footy intelligence. At 19, he has the time. Just need to keep him away from the Dockers and Eagles.

Gil mc-laugh-lan said they could have Kangas play Dees on a Wednesday in between round 11 and 12 in Cairns. Gil said he’d hope for a wet night to really screw the demons over, just like last year !!

Must win it this year. It’s our year. We must have the BELIEF

Agree. They will keep it as per normal and restrict Kangas players movements in WA and on return. Hotel quarantine in an IBIS HOTEL for Kangas ??????

Low impact. Low force. Tigers player whacked. $1000 fine.

Agree. His best play was when he didn’t have the footy. Deserves his place in the team. Though Charlie has to bring this every week as the standard.

Salem worth every $ after last night.

Exactly Rosman looked good when running at the footy. I’d play him CHB and let him follow a target.

Each week he’s developing. Huge huge potential
